Stay Ahead of Storms, Accidents, and Liability

Trees suspected of being weak or dangerous can be analyzed for probable risk of failure using wood core samples. Samples are extracted using highly specialized equipment and are examined to determine if there are soft, rotten, or hollow areas within the main trunk.

What Is Hazard Tree Evaluation?

Even a healthy-looking tree can be dangerous. Our Hazard Tree Analysis is a proactive inspection service performed by ISA-certified arborists to detect weak limbs, internal decay, and structural instability before they result in property damage or personal injury.

We evaluate each tree’s health, age, species, and proximity to homes, buildings, walkways, or high-use areas. This service is ideal for property owners and managers who want to prevent unexpected failures and ensure legal compliance with safety standards.

Why Hazard Tree Assessment Matters

Unseen risks can become costly problems. A professional inspection helps you stay informed and protected.

  • Prevents falling limbs and damage to property
  • Supports compliance with insurance and safety regulations
  • Recommended before and after major storms
  • Reduces liability risk for businesses, schools, HOAs, and municipalities
  • Enables data-informed decisions for tree maintenance or removal

Ideal for:

  • Homeowners with large or mature trees near homes or driveways
  • Schools, campuses, and playgrounds
  • Commercial properties or retail centers
  • Property managers and HOA boards
  • Parks, golf courses, and public spaces
